Marcus Randall has a snowman's chance in hell to be a QB on an NFL Roster. The guy flat out cannot throw the football. He can definitely play another position though.
I think he'd make an excellent running back. He's got great speed, and threw a couple of blocks in games last year that really stuck out in my mind...proving that with some practice, he'll be a good blocker. If he can learn to catch the football out of the backfield, he's all set. Norm Chow or no Norm Chow, I just can't see MR as a QB. It's one of those things where if you don't have the arm strength to make the throws required of an NFL qb, you just don't. Brian Mitchell of USL immediately comes to mind...he came out of USL as a QB, but had a long and successful career as a RB/kick returner.
Wow, you guys are delusional if you think Randall can play QB in the NFL. Have you seen the guy play? Arm strength? Accuracy? Decision-making? Wow, not a chance, though I hope I'm wrong. I think he does have a shot to make the practice team at RB or focus on special teams. The guy is a great athlete, and like GMan said, he leveled some RIDICULOUS blocks last year.
I'd go with the former, I have always thought Fisher was a good QB coach and a decent offensive coordinator. I wanted him back before we got Borges. And I was surprised when Miles kept him around. I guess they have similiar philosophies?
Well, all I can say is that Randall is not an NFL QB. I love the guy's heart and play, and he sounds like a great teammate and leader, but he isn't an NFL QB. He will likely be moved to Safety.
